After each win, teams hand out game balls to those who turned in outstanding performances.
We here at OBOD don’t have any balls to hand out. Wait – that sounded terrible. Let’s try that again.
We here at OBOD don’t have any game balls to hand out. But we do have donuts (at least hypothetically). And, to [...]
If you were expecting Sunday’s game with the Philadelphia Eagles to be a thing of true beauty – a Rolls Royce, Cristal, Megan Fox type of performance – you might have ended up a bit disappointed.
However, if you were looking for a gritty, gutty showing – think Jeep, Crown Royal or maybe Elizabeth Banks (ladies, [...]
There were a great many positives to take away from the Green Bay Packers’ 59-24 pounding of the Indianapolis Colts at Lambeau Field on Thursday night.
The offensive line, Ryan Grant and Aaron Rodgers all turned in very good performances. The defense wasn’t perfect, but rebounded after a tough start to play well, despite the absence of a [...]
Well, the third preseason game is here. And, as Denny Green once famously informed us, this is the one that teams do not, in fact, play like it’s bull(expletive), bull(expletive)!
That could be especially true in this one, as the Green Bay Packers take on the Indianapolis Colts and some cat named Peyton at Lambeau Field tonight [...]
The past few days at OBOD haven’t been incredibly Green Bay Packers-centric, what with our “Know Your Enemy” series and the return of Brett Favre and all.
(Seriously – did you read Gene’s fantastic post from Tuesday? If not, scroll down a bit after reading this. And, to all of our new readers, thanks for checking [...]
In our game recap for the Green Bay Packers’ 2009 preseason opener, a home game against the Cleveland Browns, we broke down the good, bad and ugly portions of the contest.
The Pack’s 2010 preseason opener was again at home – again versus the Browns – only this time, words like “good”, “bad” and “ugly” don’t seem to [...]
Folks, I got to the line of scrimmage, saw the look of the defense and decided I didn’t like the play. That’s right – I’m calling an audible.
I decided to pass on cooking up a batch of training camp stew for Tuesday, even though the Green Bay Packers practiced twice. The Stew will return Thursday night, [...]
(The Green Bay Packers were off on Sunday. As such, the “Training Camp Stew” will return Monday night.)
Over the weekend, I was listening to a recent Bill Simmons podcast that he did with NFL Network’s Michael Lombardi. The two discussed Lombardi’s “Blue Chip Rankings” article he wrote for NFL.com. It’s a fascinating examination, if you [...]
So, training camp is officially underway – thank the Lord - and the Green Bay Packers have a few practices already under their collective belt (no real injuries yet – whew).
Last season, we ran a “Training Camp Stew” series in which we gave our thoughts on the most interesting bits from the practices. The thinking, as of now, [...]
(Before we begin: Our “Friendly Fire” training camp battles series begins Tuesday.)
Before this week’s over, it will begin.
The two-a-days. The position battles. The fights. The heat – my God, the heat.
No more guessing will be necessary. Okay, there will still be some guessing – but not as much. Before this week’s over, training camp for [...]
